It's a new ISO based on Slacko 5.6.5.6 (featuring the initial OB Puppy theme). The Raring build was re-uploaded, and it has now version code U3992. I'm also uploading a revised version of the Precise build in a few days. A preview of OB Puppy S5656 (the other ISO's will also look like this):

Apart from adding OpenboxPlus, Lxterminal and Frugal Installer, I haven't done many changes to the original Slacko, as it's actually an up-to-date puppy made from Woof-CE. Note that Slacko 5.6.5.6 is a development build, a beta of future Slacko 5.7, it is convenient to report bugs to this thread instead so that they get fixed for Slacko 5.7 final.

Also note that some of the existing langpacks already support Openbox, Lxpanel and the Puppy tools added to OB Puppy. However, you may still need the .mo file for certain applications, for example Lxterminal (Slacko-based OB Puppy) or ROXTerm (Precise-, Raring-based OB Puppy) to see it in your language.

OB Puppy has Openbox and Lxpanel, maintaining ROX-Filer, it isn't inteded to include PCManFM. For those who'd like a puppy with full LXDE (PCManFM included), here is Lxpup.

Known issues
- The default GTK theme "hides" the icons of welcome1stboot, it may be one of the style sheets from the theme folder.
- Slacko-based OB Puppy: switching to JWM you get tray apps duplicated, I made symlinks to /root/Startup because they didn't appear in Lxpanel but I didn't realize there were also symlinks at /root/.config/autostart, which is recognized by JWM but not by Lxpanel. As this puppy was specifically made for use under Openbox, I think it isn't a major problem, especially considering that there will be a new version after Slacko 5.7 is released.

Be aware that Upup Raring 3992 has some ACPI issues with at least the ASUS 1000HE / 1000HEB laptops (the difference AFAIK is the 'B' on the label) -- it will not properly shut down or suspend, which (if you are running a full install) WILL corrupt the FS; took about three days for me nuked a flash drive, too (thank heavens I had good backups of that!).

I'm now on XSlacko, which is based on Slacko 5.6 -- you might try that as a base for your next OBpup, vic, since it (at least the XSlacko variant) boots to GUI on even super-tricky Poulsbo hardware (there's a little bit of fussing, but that's all -- you have to manually run xorgwizard and tell it to use 'modesetting' aka 'kms' driver)._________________

Yes, these days many people have their preferences depending on what they use and how, building several spins and letting users choose the ones that suits best their needs seems to be the best solution at the moment. I started with Raring simply because it was greengeek's suggestion, I usually boot Precise._________________OB Precise 15.01 kernel 3.17.7|Puppy Linux en español

Hi vicmz, this is nice, I'm having all kinds of fun with it. I don't think I've ever used Raring before, flies on here, Thinkpad T61, and I'd forgotten what a pleasure it is to use Seamonkey. I'm not a heavy user by any means but I like things to work and so far everything just works!

Then if a simple change of gtk theme solves it, I'd rather wait until there are enough new program versions/improvements before making another ISO based on Raring. For new remasters I decided to change themes until I can fix that thing.

Meanwhile, my Slacko 5.6 remaster gives an error of main sfs not found at boot. I checked the DISTRO_SPECS file of both the main puppy.sfs and the initrd.gz, they seem to be OK. I haven't tried other puppies yet, so I'll see what ISO gets ready first (likely Precise)._________________OB Precise 15.01 kernel 3.17.7|Puppy Linux en español

Your projects are looking good, and I encourage you to continue if you can spare the time. I've had to scale back on my projects due to more hours of working, time spent with my family, other projects, etc. I will send you a PM shortly.

Very nice pup vicmz

I'm glad that your sound card works.
However, OB Puppy S5656 is a remaster of Slacko 5.6.5.6, so actually it works thanks to 01micko & co.
In case you find any issues, it is convenient to report them here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=90489
for them to get fixed for Slacko 5.7 final.

Please read the Known Issues in the first post, they're important although they don't seem to be relevant to the purpose of this remaster (to boot with Openbox directly instead of downloading, installing and customizing it)._________________OB Precise 15.01 kernel 3.17.7|Puppy Linux en español
